The long-awaited second studio album from Brit recording artist Emili Sande is scheduled for release on November 11. The RnB singer has had a break from recording for 4 years following the success of her 2012 debut album “Our Version of Events” which featured the chart-topping single “Next To Me”.

Sande has been working on the 15-track album in New York, LA and London for the past 2 years and released lead single “Hurts” from the album in September 2016 to critical acclaim. The album is heavily influenced by Sande´s Zambian background, with the track “Tenderly” featuring both her father and cousin on vocals.

“This entire album is about me not holding back and not censoring myself, and ‘Hurts’ is an explosion, it’s just…real talk,” Sande said.

The multi Brit Award winner has also admitted to suffering from exhaustion in the past, explaining her disappearance from the music industry: “Sounds a bit dramatic but I just wanted to disappear. I just had this overwhelming sensation and realisation everything had to stop, and then slowly it did.”

Well it definitely sounds like she´s back with a bang and we can´t wait to add this to our iTunes playlist.
